Time passed steadily, and a sudden heavy rain struck Yehuai City. The rain lasted for three whole days and nights. When the shower stopped, a gentle coolness came.
Autumn... is here.
Boom!
A dull but extremely suppressed low-explosion sound came from the small pond, and a water column rose into the sky, turning into large clouds of white steam.
Countless fish of various colors floated on the water with their bellies swollen. They were stunned by the sudden shock and their bodies were completely out of control.
Jiang Yan raised his hand and rolled up a half-meter-long dark grass carp, intending to leave it to Lu Lu as food.
"Unfortunately, it still doesn't work."
In the past two days, Jiang Yan suddenly had the idea of using the Wind Fire Fist to control the Pure Spirit True Fire and the Storm Sword Style, in an attempt to combine these three powerful attack methods into one.
If Jiang Yan's idea can be realized, his offensive power can be further improved. This is also a way to increase his combat power when his cultivation is temporarily stopped.
As a result, his attempt failed.
"Sure enough, the modifier doesn't even indicate that it can integrate advanced martial arts, so there's nothing I can do about it."
“A sudden flash of inspiration can only represent a meaningful beginning, but it does not guarantee a perfect outcome.”
Jiang Yan clicked on the martial arts modifier and focused on the Storm Sword Style and the Guiyi Sword Style, thinking about whether to merge these two sword styles into one sword style.
"Sir, we're here for dinner."
Lu Lu's voice came, interrupting Jiang Yan's thinking. He shook his head slightly, sighed, and closed the modifier.
…
Two quarters of an hour later, Jiang Yan arrived at Baiyang School.
At this moment, he was wearing a green thin cloud gown, with a coral pendant hanging on his waist, and a long sword behind his back. His black hair was rolled up casually, his eyes were clear, and his expression was serious.
He came to look for Ouyang Xiuya, and today was the day they agreed to go to the wild and look for the phantom in the Star Valley.
Jiang Yan stood quietly in the shade of the night locust tree at the edge of the school square, watching the flow of people coming in and out of the door and spreading his thoughts.
He was thinking of further plans.
According to his current martial arts progress, it may only take him two months or even less to break through to the Void Core Realm.
Then within half a year, he is likely to enter the real elixir realm again. Such speed, in the eyes of the outside world, is comparable to that of a monster.
"What should I do... Relying on the school and Jingyesi's channels to obtain the skills, there will inevitably be records. If I apply for skills continuously in a short period of time..."
"It will definitely attract the attention of interested people...there is no doubt about this."
"If you want the best of both worlds..."
A faint fragrance hit his nose, and Ouyang Xiuya came around from behind him. She didn't speak, but just looked at him with her beautiful eyes.
Jiang Yan understood what she wanted to express almost instantly:
"Let's go!"
Then let’s go!
Jiang Yan followed Ouyang Xiuya in a few steps and found that her dress was completely different from usual. She usually wore a variety of elegant skirts, but today she changed into a black martial arts uniform. Coupled with her serious face, Jiang Yan's heart instantly Two words flashed through:
"Royal..."
It's just that the martial arts uniform she wears is different from ordinary martial arts uniforms. There are many small pockets on her clothes.
"This should be part of the preparation she mentioned. I don't know what is in these pockets."
In addition, Jiang Yan also found that Ouyang Xiuya was holding a long sword in her hand. This was the first time Jiang Yan saw her carrying a weapon since he knew her.
After the two left Yehuai City and set foot on the Talisman Road, and the number of pedestrians around them gradually decreased, Ouyang Xiuya suddenly stopped. She raised her arm, held the long sword in one hand, and came over.
"This sword...is given to you."
Give it to me... Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment, but he still took it. When he held the scabbard, he suddenly felt a touch of warmth.
He observed the long sword carefully. The scabbard was simple and black, with fine and irregular patterns tattooed on it.
Clang!
Jiang Yan pulled out the long sword and felt heat sweeping through him. He finally understood where the heat on the scabbard came from. It came from the sword itself.
The blade of the sword was dark red, like iron burned red by a fierce fire. One after another heat flow centered on it and spread to all sides.
At the junction with the hilt, there are two small words engraved on it: "Rainbow!"
Jiang Yan sheathed the long sword and carried it directly behind him. He turned to look at Ouyang Xiuya and said seriously, "Thank you, Teacher Ouyang. This sword is very good. I like it very much."
This is obviously an "instrument" with some special abilities, and it should be a kind gift from Ouyang Xiuya.
Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Ouyang Xiuya did not respond. She and Jiang Yan looked at each other for a moment, and then their eyes changed.
She pursed her lips slightly and continued to move forward.
"...Aren't you going to tell me some special information about this sword?" Jiang Yan stepped up to follow, thinking silently in his heart.
The road from Yehuai City to Xinggu Valley is divided into two sections.
The first section is the Talisman Road, which is basically very dangerous. The second section is the wilderness. This section of the road was opened up by folk warriors when they ventured to the Star Valley. After cleaning it up over and over again, day after day, it became a dangerous place along the way. Most of the strange things have been eliminated, and the danger is also not great.
Of course, there is not just one such wild road.
The truly dangerous place is Star Valley itself.
The vast territory, harsh environment, secretly watching monsters, and various human adventurers with ulterior motives constitute the source of danger here.
The two of them hurried on with all their strength, and finally arrived at the edge of the Talisman Road before dusk. Once here, they were about to enter the wilderness path and head west.
Jiang Yan looked up at the sky and said to Ouyang Xiuya, "Let's find a place to set up camp and enter the wilderness early tomorrow morning."
The sky is dark, and there is no need to go further into the wilderness at this moment. For the human race in this world, few people will travel in the wild at night unless necessary. It is too easy to attract the strange gaze of shadows.
Ouyang Xiuya pointed to the farther side of Fu Road, meaning to go there, away from the wilderness intersection.
Jiang Yan also agreed with this approach in his heart.
About ten miles away from the intersection of the wilderness, the two stopped in the middle of the talisman path and began to arrange the talisman array.
Ouyang Xiuya was indeed more meticulously prepared than Jiang Yan. She arranged a total of four talisman formations, namely warning, defense, attack, silence...
Moreover, Jiang Yan also saw that Ouyang Xiuya took out a leather bag from her chest. She just shook it gently, and the leather bag swelled in the wind and turned into a humanoid man in black about eight feet tall.
The "man in black" sat cross-legged on the ground and lowered his head slightly. In this way, his face was covered by a high hood. If he hadn't seen it in advance, it would be difficult for Jiang Yan to guess that this was a real tool. people.
What the hell...an inflatable man?
"It can confuse...weird people." Ouyang Xiuya rarely explained to him.
Jiang Yan nodded blankly. He reacted for a while and suddenly looked at the many small bags on Ouyang Xiuya's body secretly.
"Could it be that... there are some special little things in the little bag on her body?"
"The preparations are really substantial."
